      In pretty bad shape in my 7/4/25 ride down from the cabins. Lots of trees down and gullies. The gate about 1/4 mile downhill of the cabins is at a really sketchy angle uphill, stay to the farright side of the trail or risk getting the sharp end of a metal gate to the face. This could be a really nice way down to the meadow for bikes to limit hiker interaction, but right now proceed with caution.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
